SPRINGFIELD – After over thirty changes to legislation that would significantly reform the way Illinois does business, State Senator Terry Link (D-Vernon Hills) joined colleagues to attempt to push forward with a plan to put Illinois’ fiscal house back in order.

“We have tried again and again to close the gap that the governor insists is still there,” Link said. “We tried to compromise and yet we are left empty-handed because this governor wants to campaign instead of govern. The people of Illinois are tired of being close and are demanding results.”

Senator Link continues to work toward finding a path that avoids putting Illinois closer to the point of no return.
